Australia is a multi-cultural nation that complies with international covenants on refugee and humanitarian issues. Human rights are well entrenched and discrimination is illegal. A critically developed understanding of diversity and culture is a core element of safe therapeutic practice for the professional and their client(s). When working with diversity, knowledge of cultural differences allows for more effective communication and the building of trust. Working with diverse clients may require the development of a flexible communication style and the ability to be responsive with ethical decision-making. There are also times when confidentially and the therapeutic responsibility to exercise ‘duty of care’ may cause conflict. This assessment requires critical reflection on your personal and professional approaches to diversity, confidentiality and professional boundaries.

Young children and teens tend to be “picky eaters.” This may lead to an imbalanced diet, poor intake of vitamins and minerals, and an increased risk of nutrient deficiencies. In this discussion you will gather and share ideas to help with this problem. Your first post should include the following three points.
1) Choose to discuss either toddlers/children OR ‘tweens’/teens. Briefly discuss the reason for your selection.
2) Using the HON website from Unit 1, research to find a reliable source for specific tips and strategies on how to encourage children to eat a well balanced diet. Include the web link to the specific article.
Review the www.hon.ch website which is a great ‘gateway’ when web researching health information.
3) Using your research, describe at least one idea which might be used to support with eating/feeding challenges of children. Do you think the idea will work? Why or why not? Have you tried any of the ideas with your family or seen others use the suggestions? Discuss.

Contrary to what some critics claim, violence in movies is not evidence of people’s declining moral standards. Ancient myths, medieval biographies, Shakespeare’s plays, and nineteenth century novels are all full of bloodshed and mayhem. People have always been this way.

Considering the students in your field experience classroom, discuss how you would organize and facilitate a field trip.

A student cannot legally be excluded from a field trip or any school function because of a disability, IEP, or 504. It could be considered a denial of Free and Appropriate Public Education (FAPE) which is a legal right under the Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). It would also be discrimination based on a disability by an institution receiving federal money which is prohibited by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation (“Supporting Students”, 2013).
The student would go on the field trip.
Prior to the field trip, I would meet with the special education teacher who is responsible for his behavioral accommodations to organize a plan with the best possible strategies and accommodations that can be utilized outside of the classroom. I would also have a whole class meeting the week before the field trip emphasizing how important it is to be on our best behavior so that we can all learn and enjoy the field trip. I would remind the students all through the week. I would meet individually with the student in question a week or so before the field trip and again the day before. I would answer his questions, talk again about trying our best to listen and be respectful and build excitement. I would have a list of triggers to be aware of as well as a list of the best solutions. The IEP accommodations must be followed on the field trip just as they are in the classroom (“Supporting Students”, 2013). Because the IEP does not specify a one-on-one aid, he cannot be required to have one on the field trip; however, if there is an aid that he is particularly fond of, it would be beneficial to invite them and include them in the class or small groups with the child. Comment as you see fit. Min 40 words or more.

Considering the students in my field experience class, field trips need to be pre-planned ahead of time with the team that will be taking them. The students that are in my classroom have high behaviors and can be set off easily. Planning a field trip with these younger students should be planned for an outside trip. The one thing I know is that I will plan extra staff to come with on the field trip, at this time, the more staff the better. I remember two years ago, we took the whole school which consists of 25 students ranging from kindergarten to high school to the zoo. We brought along extra staff like our behavior analysts, counselors, and all teachers and paraprofessionals along with the dean of students. It turned out to be a good day, we were very proud of how well the students behaved! A few days before leaving for the trip, I would begin reading stories and social stories to the students on how to behave and act around others out in public. Students should know the rules and expectations when going off the school yard, riding the bus, being around other people, and how to behave appropriately. The students should also know what kind of consequences that will happen if they are misbehaving and not following directions. A as teacher having a student list with their families contact information would be a priority to bring with along with any medications that need to be given during the trip. As a teacher, we have to remind ourselves that not everything is going to go perfectly, so we should be flexible and always have a plan B strategy to follow through with. Some components that may need to be modified throughout the field trip would be outdoor behaviors from play ground to a public place, what happens if behaviors occur, and expectations of students. If behaviors occur on a field trip, trying to make it as less noticeable as possible is best, also the expectations should be modified to be stricter than they are in school. Field trips can be fun and when planned accordingly, it can be successful from start to finish. Comment as you see fit. Min 40 words or more

After reading Barbara Glass’ “Introduction to
When the Spirit Moves: The Africanization of American Movement

characteristics
in each section of the Ailey’s ballet (there are three sections shown below with 3-4 dances in each section). A further explanation of symbolism using music as portrayed in social conditions as reflected through Du Bois’ concept of “transformation vs. transfiguration” should be considered to enhance your overall analysis. Chapter 14 of
Souls of Black Folk
provides the theoretical background.

Considering the students in my field experience classroom, I would organize a field trip that was interactive, engaging, and of course, fun. I would stay away from field trips that consisted of mostly listening to someone present information without some type of interaction. Before the field trip, I would talk about appropriate behaviors with the students and what is expected of them as well as communicate how the daily schedule will change. I will go over all this again on the morning of the field trip. On the field trip, I would utilize parent volunteers and break up the class into smaller groups with a parent chaperone. I would preset the groups to separate students who I know would cause issues if partnered and group the student with behavioral issues in my group. I would also make sure I have a list of any known medical issues, allergies, and triggers for behavior issues.
The expectations of the students, procedures for student medical emergencies, and IEP or 504 interventions and accommodations would remain the same as would consequences for not listening. Restroom procedures would change somewhat as students would need to always be paired and with a chaperone rather than going on their own. Transitions would also change because times and places would be different, but students would still be expected to line up quietly and quickly when instructed. comment as you see fit.
